- PPatrinaBrisbane •4 reviews4.0Dined 2 days agoI made a last minute booking with my two young, very tired children as we were staying in the area whilst on holidays. The express menu available until 6pm was very reasonable (2 courses for 26 pounds) and they were flexible in adding fries to the fish for the children rather than potatoes. My steak was excellent and cooked exactly how I wanted it - better than any I have had in a while. Overall, very happy with our experience.More infoHawksmoor EdinburghPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Edinburgh•4.5

- BburakLondon •17 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoGreat service. Fabulous food. The only downside is the open kitchen and the table set up when they have a nice second floor as well. The wait staff were extremely helpful and understanding when we asked them to move due to noise though.More infoBread Street Kitchen & Bar — EdinburghPrice: Moderate• British• New Town•4
